Explanation to Bollinger's Bands

Bollinger Bands was created by John Bollinger in the early 1980s, its purpose is to define price action relative to the assets highs and lows. This technical indicator is used to identify buy and sell signals and has proven very well in doing so.

Bollinger Bands consist of a set of three curves drawn in relation to securities prices. The middle band is a measure of the intermediate-term trend, usually a simple moving average, that serves as the base for the upper and lower bands. The interval between the upper and lower bands and the middle band is determined by volatility, typically the standard deviation of the same data that were used for the average. StockInvest.us uses Bollingers suggested 20 day average.

Middle Bollinger Band = 20-period simple moving average
Upper Bollinger Band = Middle Bollinger Band + 2 * 20-period standard deviation
Lower Bollinger Band = Middle Bollinger Band - 2 * 20-period standard deviation

BandWidth defines the current width of the band.
%b defines the current position within the band.

BandWidth = (Upper Bollinger Band - Lower Bollinger Band) / Middle Bollinger Band
%b = (Last - Lower Bollinger Band) / (Upper Bollinger Band - Lower Bollinger Band)

Bottlenecks in bandwidth indicate an upcoming change. Break up through the moving average line or continuous movements above the moving average line indicate a break up, and vice versa.

MCOV-B.ST Signals & Forecast

The Medicover AB (publ) stock holds a sell signal from the short-term Moving Average; at the same time, however, there is a buy signal from the long-term average. Since the short-term average is above the long-term average there is a general buy signal in the stock giving a positive forecast for the stock. On further gains, the stock will meet resistance from the short-term Moving Average at approximately kr192.43. On a fall, the stock will find some support from the long-term average at approximately kr166.58. A break-up through the short-term average will send a buy signal, whereas a breakdown through the long-term average will send a sell signal. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Thursday, May 16, 2024, and so far it has fallen -3.96%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the stock should be followed more closely.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Medicover AB (publ) stock

On the downside, the stock finds support just below today's level from accumulated volume at kr173.60 and kr172.00. There is a natural risk involved when a stock is testing a support level, since if this is broken, the stock then may fall to the next support level. In this case, Medicover AB (publ) finds support just below today's level at kr173.60. If this is broken, then the next support from accumulated volume will be at kr172.00 and kr161.00.

This stock has average movements during the day and with good trading volume, the risk is considered to be medium. During the last day, the stock moved kr4.60 between high and low, or 2.43%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 2.23%.

Our recommended stop-loss: kr181.72 (-3.85%) (This stock has medium daily movements and this gives medium risk. There is a sell signal from a pivot top found 9 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (MCOV-B.ST) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Wednesday 29th

For the upcoming trading day on Wednesday, 29th we expect Medicover AB (publ) to open at kr190.53, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between kr183.71 and kr194.29, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-kr5.29 (+/-2.80%) up or down from last closing price. If Medicover AB (publ) takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 5.60% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at kr191.00 (1.06%) than the support at kr173.60 (8.15%), our systems don't find the trading risk/reward intra-day attractive and any bets should be held until the stock is closer to the support level.

Is Medicover AB (publ) stock A Buy?

Medicover AB (publ) holds several negative signals and this should be a sell candidate, but due to the general chance for a turnaround situation it should be considered as a hold candidate (hold or accumulate) in this position whilst awaiting further development. Due to some small weaknesses in the technical picture we have downgraded our analysis conclusion for this stock since the last evaluation from a Buy to a Hold/Accumulate candidate.
